Composition 9/11- The First 6 Rules of Composition

Balance 
I chose this picture for balance because it has a lot of curves and is easy to look at. None of the water is a straight line, which is good.
Frame
I chose this picture for frame because everything in it is quire and a frame would go perfectly with it. The sign and trucks go really well together because they are all similar in shape.
 Lines
I chose this picture for obvious reasons. The lines are good on the eye and go well with the subject. The lines of the building don't lead to the man but it's almost like they go with him.
 (Not) Avoiding Mergers
I chose this because it looks like the helicopter is touching the building and it's not. A better way to fix this would be to take the picture from a lower angle so the helicopter wouldn't look like it was touching the building.
Rule of Thirds 
I chose this for rule of thirds because the boy is off-center. This goes well because the road makes it look like it would lead to the boy but then he's not where you think he'd be.
Simplicity
I chose this for simplicity because the background is extremely simple and even though the focal point is the same color, it still stands out. The woman's face pops out, showing the emotional part of the photo.
